theres no such thing as mvdir and issuing mv dir1 dir2 is totally valid.. by issuing that command, dir1 will be copied into dir2 along with their contents if dir2 is already exist.. if dir2 is not yet created/exist, dir1 will be renamed to dir2

is that means that you can hibernating your box before ?
how much swap did you got ?

it is better to have swap partition twice the size of RAM..
but doesnt have to exceed 2GB..

e.g:
RAM 256MB, swap should be 512MB
RAM 1GB, swap should be 2GB
RAM 4GB, swap should be 2GB

actually, you gonna need a swap space if you're going to use hibernation, at least for ubuntu it is..

and after googling a few minutes, i got this bit of information about how hibernation (suspend-to-disk) works..:


and to resume (e.g: power button swicth on), the process will reversed.

do correct me if i'm wrong..

and if its to small, expand it.. at least, to be equal with your RAM coz the system will place your-currently-running-application image on swap partition.. imagine if your swap partition is 512MB and image-to-be-place is 1.5GB..

is this release contain ubuntu 10.04 and several updates (that can be obtains via update manager) ?
if i already owned the 10.04, for lets say 2-3 months, do i have to use this release ?
i always updating my box, so those updates included should already installed in mine, isnt it ?

p/s: just curious
